SALT LAKE CITY — It may be hot and dry, but we’re on track for a below-average year when it comes to the total number of triple-digit days in Salt Lake City. KSL meteorologist Kevin Eubank says the state averages eight 100-degree days a year, spread out over June, July and August. However, in the last few years, Utah has been well over that average. So far in 2025, we’ve only had five. The bulk of the heat hits in July, and that month is in the rearview mirror. “We likely could end the summer months below normal for 100-degree days,” said Eubank. “For Salt Lake City, this is actually the least amount of 100-degree days in seven years for the summer season.” Utah’s triple-digit record is 34 days set in 2022. “It isn’t a full indicator of how hot the summer’s been. One hundred is just one thing that we look at,” Eubank said.
